๐Ÿ›ฃ๏ธ Roadmap

Jorts is a cute simple little notes app, and i wanna keep it this way

right now im working on:

  • Maybe an option to show window title buttons, because now this is on flathub i may get flak from users about the lack of it
  • Probably some cleaner code if i come around to it
  • Maybe a toggle lists if i find how to do it without more UI noise

Feel free to check the project board

๐Ÿ’ Donations

On the right you can donate to various contributors:

  • teamcons, the main devs and maintainers behind jorts
  • wpkelso, the author of the modern icon and its Pride variant
  • lains, the initial creator of the app (It was Notejot, now something very different)
